Thank you so much for taking the time to answer. It truly helps me to understand the "why of things".
I have very dry summers. Our rains have generally stopped by the end of April (most of the bulbs have died back by mid-May) and the rains won't start again until fall. Now, I can divide them and move them to areas where I don't water during the summer months. That is such good news.
I'll store the bulbs that go back into the areas where I do water. Less to plant in the fall ...
Smiles,
Lyn
